Still, TOTV has connected me with a ton of wonderful people.

This has become important as my liver is failing (it started going gimpy when I was in my 20's and is now getting critical).

Ellen and Kitty keep me on course...and challenge me to take proactive steps to get well and a transplant. Gracie has connected me with someone who had a transplant and taught me the easiest ways to get a liver. This info may save my life. All friends made via TOTV.

TOTV is a great resource. Thanks to the admins and mods (even though they sometimes admonish me for great lines like "carnival of idiots").

Let's honor a great resource.

In the recovery moment, they have a saying “Let Go, and Let God” which does have some profound wisdom. Instead of believing we are 100% in control – it is often smarter to do what it is ours to do, and let it go. Divine, Source or Spirit can then help create a solution to whatever challenge we are facing. Ever have the experience where you didn’t know how something was going to get fixed? Or done? And then you prayed and somehow a miraculous solution presented itself.

Sincere good wishes for success in receiving your new organ transplant.
